“Cheryl Cran spoke for Duke University Singapore in April 2013 and we were thrilled! Her Keynote on “Everyone is a Leader” was very eye opening and inspiring. Cheryl’s ability to convey her message on leadership, empowerment and skill development in a friendly, fun and connected way is quite amazing. Our group valued her ability to connect with our culture and customize her message to the realities of working in Singapore.
I found Cheryl to be accessible, easy to work with and a great example of an inspired leader. We would love to have Cheryl back again.”

“We had Cheryl Cran as one of our main speakers at our annual HR Summit 2013
in Singapore, this event is the largest HR event of its’ kind in Asia.
Cheryl’s session on ‘Lead With 2020 Vision’ was eye opening and very
relevant to the HR professionals attending this event. Her combination of
trend research, humour, and audience interaction was a hit with our group.
We would love to work with Cheryl again.”

“We had Cheryl as our Keynote speaker at our annual strategic retreat for our senior leaders. Her presentation on “Leading With Power, Energy & Passion” was exactly what our team needed. Cheryl has the unique ability to ‘hear’ what we needed and to completely create a customized message that was EXACTLY what we needed . Her knowledge of technology, leadership tools and emotional intelligence and her ability to give us tools to leverage our skills was right on track with where we need to go as a leadership team. We have a team of highly intelligent and accomplished leaders who are quite jaded and we had one of our long term leaders say, “I have been coming to these for years and Cheryl was by far the most relevant and excellent leadership expert we have had to date”.
As a leadership expert Cheryl combines research, applied knowledge and tremendous insight that ultimately will help our leaders to perform to their next level of success.”

“A few years ago Cheryl was the Keynote speaker at our annual conference – she was so well received that we invited her back to do a special workshop for NLOWE. Cheryl’s session combined personal stories, business ideas, social media ideas, business success strategies and more. In fact she gave one of our members an idea for a web application for her business that could be a ‘million dollar’ idea. Cheryl is a WEConnect International and WBENC certified business and also delivered a message for our women entrepreneurs on the merits of being a certified woman business owner. While here in St. John’s she also met with the local chapter of the Women’s Presidents Organization and delivered a special session on employee retention, generational values and leadership styles. We highly recommend working with Cheryl, she also assisted us to promote our event by preparing press releases, blog posts, video promos and more- she is easy to work with, professional and provides high value to clients.”
“Thank you Cheryl for your keynote at our annual BC Health Conference in Richmond. Your message about leading change in a fast paced, technological and multi-generational workplace was so perfectly timed for us and our industry. Health care is going through major technological advance at a fast speed and we have a diverse group of teams who are adapting to change at different speeds. You provided us with research and insight that helped the leaders in attendance to recognize their own need to adapt to change and the shifting realities of the workplace but also how they can help their teams adapt and get along with each other better. The practical tools you provided were relevant and will help our leaders continue to lead at the highest levels possible.”

Cheryl Cran’s Keynote to our legal technology professionals at the ILTA 2012 conference was fantastic! We are a discerning group with high expectations and Cheryl’s ability to provide new thought provoking information as well as create energy and buzz around her topic was great. we had our highest attendance at an early morning session, ever. Our profession is dealing with continual technological change as well as economic and client pressures. Cheryl’s keynote, “Leading Change in a Fast Paced & Technological Workplace” was spot on. We appreciated the time she took both before the conference and during to talk with our people and deepen her understanding of our group and their challenges. In her keynote Cheryl provided strategies and solutions that were relevant and usable, as well as valuable takeaways to help people in their work. We were all talking about ‘the technology and generations gap’ for days after her presentation. It was a pleasure working with Cheryl before, during and after the Keynote.

“We had Cheryl Cran as our Keynote Speaker at our K-ACTE Conference in Wichita Kansas July 2012. We are a group of educators and we work to bridge the skills we teach our students with the business community. Cheryl’s Keynote on Leading Change in a Fast Paced & Technological Workplace was timely, hugely relevant and of major impact with our group. This is a time of big change and the message Cheryl delivered provided insight, global research and practical ideas on how we as educators can integrate the reality of a very different future into our work. In addition to the Keynote Cheryl provided an afternoon concurrent session on Embracing Generations W,Y and Zoomers in the Workplace and this session further anchored the need for us to adapt to the upcoming generational talents of the millennial’s (those under 20) while continuing to prepare them for the workplace. As a result of Cheryl’s messages we have had many of our attendees continue to talk, generate ideas and more importantly plan to take new actions with the information that was shared.”

“Cheryl presented at our annual convention held in Dallas this year and her topic was timely, relevant and helpful to the bureau owners and agents in attendance. We appreciated the time and effort she took to prepare a fully customized presentation that was applicable to our audience. She provided insight and relevant tools that I believe will help those in attendance build their business and achieve increased success. The research on social media as well as the technological tools Cheryl provided, such as relevant apps, were both interesting and helpful.”
